That’s why I take so many pictures, keep them forever and make them searchable.

Columbo my love

ACAB should always come with a single exception: Columbo.

A man of the people, who only puts rich assholes behind bars.

The full translation of the clip of Gaël Duval provided by GrapheneOS:

There’s the attack surface, on that front we’re not security specialists here, so I couldn’t answer you precisely, but from the discussions I’ve had, it seems that everything we do reduces attack surface.

However, we don’t have a “hardened security” approach, we aren’t developing a phone for pedo(censored) so they can evade justice. So there aren’t difficult things to check if the memory is corrupted, really hardened security stuff that could clearly be useful for executives, in the secret service, or whatever.

That’s not our goal, our goal is to start from an observation: today our personal data is constantly being plundered and that wouldn’t be legal in real life with the mail or the telephone, we want to change that. So we are making you a product that changes that by default for anyone.

As a french speaker, I can attest that the translation is fairly accurate.

While I don’t agree with the characterisation Gaël Duval makes here, I believe the statement from GrapheneOS here:

Duval and his organizations have consistently taken a stance against protecting users from exploits. In this video, he once again claims protecting against exploits is for only useful pedophiles and spies.

Is a bit disingenuous. It sounds like they do make some efforts to secure their device, but it’s not their main focus. Theirs is to improve privacy first and foremost.

I would take anything GrapheneOS devs says with a grain of salt, as we all know that they have quite an adversarial relationship with… well… everyone. But especially other OS makers.

I watched the movie last year. Very much an anti-capitalist, borderline communist movie. A good watch if somewhat depressing.

What a fucking legend.

Brave woman. Much braver than the bigots using trans people as a scapegoat to get votes and ingratiate themselves with the facist government.

Should I act surprised that the genocide and torture state is doing genocide and torture?

Unrelated, but I just learnt that Dick van Dyke is 100 years old as of last December and still kicking.

I was trying to figure out why people still use Axios, when the built-in fetch works just fine. Is it because people are still sending XML requests?

Gotcha! This comment has not been removed… Probably.

Some photos I took at the protest in this comment

Nah we mostly followed the roads. I was accompanying a wheelchair user so it was best to avoid going in and out of the road.

Deleted this comment as I replaced the main article

I was there today, it was a blast, everybody was super friendly.

If you didn’t get a chance to come this time, you should come to the far-right counter protest on the 16th of May!

As they say, (willfull?) ignorance is bliss.

Uh, I think the deleted comment was likely a joke on how the name of the video was “unzip to hack” rather than about sexualizing the YouTuber.

That said, I can see why it may be inappropriate so I can understand why it was removed.

Look, from the little I know about the Iran government I do not like them much.

But this is really funny.

Of course they do. They are extremely impartial on the matter and I trust their judgment.
